Rocky on Clarke
I just had the opportunity to hear Vice Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee Jay Rockefeller (D-VV V) speak at a fundraiser, where he decided against discussing the supposed topic, Health Care, because he'd rather discuss how incredibly stupid Senator Frist and the other GOP attack dogs are to go after Richard Clarke.
After hearing Senator Frist's Senate Floor speech stating that Clarke may have perjured himself, Rockefeller went back and read the entire 5 hour testimony that Clarke had previously given. Not once did Clarke contradict himself, according to Rockefeller. He went on to say that Clarke is one of the most prepared people that he's ever met and is not into politics. Tim Russert backed up that claim this morning on Imus, by saying Clarke is the most prepared person he's ever interviewed. It seems that Richard Clarke has worked in Washington long enough to know that he's got to get everything in writing. President Bush and his allies may have picked the wrong person to mess with.
